I got to the shop yesterday and Alex had spent a lot of time there this week......
The tanks we folded had originally been fabricated to fit the space between the bulkheads from port to starboard, it did'nt leave any spaces for the fisholds so Alex cut the originals down so they sit centered off the keel...
Inside the tank Alex created a baffle that will help with fuel tank slosh....
This is the fuel tank sensor that relays back to the gauges, it's quite feat to build a block, then mount the sensor through it and into the tank....More pics on that next week.....
All the fittings on the tank were cut, welded and threaded too..
Alex.....

Shannon....dude knows how to weld....

This is the spot where they are going to be mounted...
Another tank is being created to sit in the next bulkhead up to cover the 100 gallons lost when the other tanks were resized...
Next week they will get finished and then pressure tested....
Stay tuned....
